Q. No .8 A spherical pressure vessel has an inside diameter of 4 m and a wall thickness of 15 mm. The vessel will be constructed from structural steel [E = 200 GPa; v 0.29] that has a yield strength of 250 MPa. If the internal pressure in the vessel is 1,200 kPa, determine (a) the normal stress in the vessel wall, (b) the fac- tor of safety with respect to the yield strength, (c) the normal strain in the sphere and (d) the increase in the outside diameter of the vessel.
